Ted Watson               Henry V \nWalton                                                 Façade \nConductor                                           Bruce O’Neil \nSoprano                                               Jennifer Witton \nNarrator                                               TBC \nReciter                                                  Tamsin Dalley \nHenry V is the heroic score Walton provided for Laurence Olivier’s film of Shakespeare’s Henry V\, stirring patriotic feelings during World War II. Tonight we get a rare chance to enjoy the chamber ensemble reduction by Ted Watson\, a musician connected so strongly with the Royal Shakespeare Company. \nWilliam Walton was only 19 when he composed Façade\, jazzy settings of surreal poetry by Edith Sitwell. Narrated through a megaphone from behind a painted curtain\, its premiere 100 years ago caused a furore. Today it is appreciated as one of the most delicious works in the English music catalogue.
